The EU: IN or OUT?

JohnRo

Even more division and inequality to come then, at least the peasants in the regions who voted to leave will have all these new Boris hospitals and NHS spending to look forward to without a queue of EU migrants getting in the way.

My take... the leavers can thank Corbyn for their victory. His whole career has been anti EU because it was a capitalist bulwark against the Trotskyist revolution. Hence his quarter hearted attempt at getting the labour vote out on the basis of keeping workers rights etc, let alone labour's history of internationalism. The nail in the coffin was his statement that he saw no reason for a cap on immigration in the last days of the campaign. It was obvious this would be red rag to the North and Midlands traditional worker voters in high immigration areas seeing no wage rises for years and fearful for their jobs.

Will the markets stabilise? I'm interested in Boris' excuses if they don't.

I know what your saying,i should be a labour man through and through but corbyn and his like with their greenie behaviour has nothing in common with the working class man any more.

A very devisive campaign. My hope would be that politicians' now come together and work towards making our country a fairer place to live. That they realise that they need to 'listen' to the people they are paid to represent.

We are all but a cog in a wheel. We are all as important as one another. That wheel would not turn if we did not individually fulfill our role - whatever that may be.

Labour has indeed become the party of the Hampstead socialist. They need to get back to the idea of social justice and drop the class warfare and bigotry. Blair articulated it very well, but the execution was execrable. Some might say Blair's execution is overdue ... Just kidding.

The problem with the campaign was the negativity. I tuned out of the zombie apocalypse warnings. I suspect a lot of people were desensitised to the possibility of economic wobbles by the crying wolf.

So Mr C has resigned. Well he can be assured that there will be a well paid consultancy job awaiting him.

Your comments don't appear to be ironic but they are.

The arrogance of the remain campaign has largely led to this result, incredibky negative and disaster striven. Again ironic that when opposed by a comedy coalition of gove, boris, farage et al the remain campaign seemed even more extreme than this combination of nutters and extremists.

I agree with this^^
